Willow Waterhole MusicFest 2022

The fall edition of the bi-annual MusicFest takes place at the Willow Waterhole Greenway, Sat., Oct. 29, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. The event will blend the best of Halloween family fun and live music. Bring your favorite costume - for you and your dog! - for the Mortals and Dogs costume parade, while the kids enjoy the inflatable haunted house, 10 spooky Halloween games and Trunk or Treat. 

Music fans will be treated to eight bands representing a variety of music styles headlined by the Houston funk/jazz powerhouse Keith Vivens & TKoH. Bring chairs or blankets to sit, relax, and enjoy the music.
